Coca-cola India Pvt. Ltd.
INTRODUCTION
Coca-Cola, the corporation nourishing the global community with the world’s largest selling soft
drink concentrates since 1886, returned to India in 1993 after a 16 year hiatus, giving new
thumbs up to the Indian soft drink market. In the same year, the Company took over ownership
of the nation’s top soft-drink brand and bottling network. It’s no wonder our brands have
assumed an iconic status in the minds of the world’s consumers.
The Coca-Cola Company is the world's largest beverage company, largest manufacturer,
distributor and marketer of non-alcoholic beverage concentrates and syrups in the world and is
one of the largest corporations in the United States. The company is best known for its flagship
product Coca-Cola, invented by pharmacist John Stith Pemberton in 1886. The Coca-Cola
formula and brand was bought in 1889 by Asa Candler who incorporated The Coca-Cola
Company in 1892. Besides its namesake Coca-Cola beverage, Coca-Cola currently offers more
than 400 brands in over 200 countries or territories and serves 1.6 billion servings each day.
The company operates a franchised distribution system dating from 1889 where The Coca-Cola
Company only produces syrup concentrate which is then sold to various bottlers throughout the
world who hold an exclusive territory.
The Coca-Cola Company is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Its stock is listed on the NYSE
and is part of DJIA, S&P 500 Index, the Russell 1000 Index and the Russell 1000 Growth Stock
Index. Its current chairman and CEO is Muhtar Kent.

HISTORY
The Coca-Cola Company was originally established as the J. S. Pemberton Medicine Company,
a co-partnership between Dr. John Stith Pemberton and Ed Holland. The company was formed to
sell three main products: Pemberton's French Wine Cola (later known as Coca Cola),
Pemberton's Indian Queen Hair Dye, and Pemberton's Globe Flower Cough Syrup. In 1884, the
company became a stock company and the name was changed to Pemberton Chemical Company.
The new president was D. D. Doe while Ed Holland became the new Vice-President.Pemberton
stayed on as the superintendent. The company's factory was located at No. 107, Marietta St.
Three years later, the company was again changed to Pemberton Medicine Company, another co-
partnership, this time between Pemberton, A. O. Murphy, E. H. Blood worth, and J. C. Mayfield
Finally in October 1888, the company received a charter with an authorized capital of
$50,000.The charter became official on January 15, 1889. By this time, the company had
expanded its offerings to include Pemberton's Orange and Lemon Elixir.
FOCUS AREA:
Production:
Processes and methods employed in transformation of tangible inputs (raw materials, semi-
finished goods, or subassemblies) and intangible inputs (ideas, information, know how) into
goods or services. To study the production activity carried out in the plant.
TYPE OF PRODUCTION:
Mass production:
Mass production is the name given to the method of producing goods in large quantities at low
cost per unit. But mass production, although allowing lower prices, does not have to mean low-
quality production. Instead, mass-produced goods are standardized by means of precision-
manufactured, interchangeable parts. The mass production process itself is characterized by
mechanization to achieve high volume, elaborate organization of materials flow through various
stages of manufacturing, careful supervision of quality standards, and minute division of labour.

To make it worthwhile, mass production requires mass consumption. Until relatively recent
times the only large-scale demand for standardized, uniform products came from military
organizations. The major experiments that eventually led to mass production were first
performed under the aegis of the military.
PLANT LAYOUT:
Efficient production depends on how well the machinery, production facilities and
employee amenities are placed and located in the plant. The adequacy of layout affects the
effectiveness of subsequent operations.
A good layout in a plant will ensure smooth and rapid movement of material from the
stage of raw material to the end product stage. The grouping of equipment and operations in a
factory for the greatest degree of efficiency is called Plant Layout. It can also be defined as the
location of machinery, tools and support system properly organized in a manufacturing facility
resulting in an efficient flow of product.
A good layout results in comforts, convenience, safety, efficiency, compactness and
profits. A poor layout results in congestion, waste, frustration and inefficiency.
FRANCHISED PRODUCTION MODEL
The actual production and distribution of Coca-Cola follows a franchising model. The
Coca-Cola Company only produces a syrup concentrate, which it sells to bottlers throughout the
world, who hold Coca-Cola franchises for one or more geographical areas. The bottlers produce
the final drink by mixing the syrup with filtered water and sweeteners, and then carbonate it
before putting it in cans and bottles, which the bottlers then sell and distribute to retail stores,
vending machines, restaurants and food service distributors.
The Coca-Cola Company owns minority shares in some of its largest franchises, like
Coca-Cola Enterprises, Coca-Cola Amatil, Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company (CCHBC) and
Coca-Cola FEMSA, but fully independent bottlers produce almost half of the volume sold in the
world. Independent bottlers are allowed to sweeten the drink according to local tastes.

MARKETING RESEARCH-
Marketing research involves conducting research to support marketing activities, and the
statistical interpretation of data into information. This information is then used by managers to
plan marketing activities, gauge the nature of a firm's marketing environment and attain
information from suppliers. Marketing researchers use statistical methods such as quantitative
research, qualitative research, hypothesis tests, Chi-squared tests, linear regression, correlations,
frequency distributions, Poisson distributions, binomial distributions, etc. to interpret their
findings and convert data into information. The marketing research process spans a number of
stages including the definition of a problem, development of a research plan, collecting and
interpretation of data and disseminating information formally in form of a report. The task of
marketing research is to provide management with relevant, accurate, reliable, valid, and current
information.
FOUR P’s OF MARKETING-
A prominent marketer, E. Jerome McCarthy, proposed a 4 P classification in 1960, which has
seen wide use. The four Ps concepts are explained in most marketing textbooks and classes.
Elements of the marketing mix are often referred to as 'the four Ps':

PlacePromotion
MARKETING
Coca-Cola India Pvt. Ltd.
Product - A tangible object or an intangible service that is mass produced or
manufactured on a large scale with a specific volume of units. Intangible products are
service based like the tourism industry & the hotel industry or codes-based products like
cell phone load and credits. Typical examples of a mass produced tangible object are the
motor car and the disposable razor. A less obvious but ubiquitous mass produced service
is a computer operating system.
Price – The price is the amount a customer pays for the product. It is determined by a
number of factors including market share, competition, material costs, product identity
and the customer's perceived value of the product. The business may increase or decrease
the price of product if other stores have the same product.
Place – Place represents the location where a product can be purchased. It is often
referred to as the distribution channel. It can include any physical store as well as virtual
stores on the Internet.
Promotion - represents all of the communications that a marketer may use in the
marketplace. Promotion has four distinct elements - advertising, public relations, word of
mouth and point of sale. A certain amount of crossover occurs when promotion uses the
four principal elements together, which is common in film promotion. Advertising covers
any communication that is paid for, from cinema commercials, radio and Internet adverts
through print media and billboards. Public relations are where the communication is not
directly paid for and includes press releases, sponsorship deals, exhibitions, conferences,
seminars or trade fairs and events. Word of mouth is any apparently informal
communication about the product by ordinary individuals, satisfied customers or people
specifically engaged to create word of mouth momentum. Sales staff often plays an
important role in word of mouth and Public Relations.
Coca-Cola's advertising has significantly affected American culture, and it is frequently credited
with inventing the modern image of Santa Claus as an old man in a red-and-white suit. Although
the company did start using the red-and-white Santa image in the 1930s, with its winter Coca-
JITENDRA SANGLE
Coca-Cola India Pvt. Ltd.
Cola was not even the first soft drink company to use the modern image of Santa Claus in its
advertising: White Rock Beverages used Santa in advertisements for its ginger ale in 1923, after
first using him to sell mineral water in 1915.
Before Santa Claus, Coca-Cola relied on images of smartly-dressed young women to sell
its beverages. Coca-Cola's first such advertisement appeared in 1895, featuring the young
Bostonian actress Hilda Clark as its spokeswoman.
1941 saw the first use of the nickname "Coke" as an official trademark for the
product, with a series of advertisements informing consumers that "Coke means Coca-Cola".
In 1971, a song from a Coca-Cola commercial called "I'd like to teach the World
to sing," produced by Billy Davis, became a hit single.
Coke's advertising is pervasive, as one of Woodruff's stated goals was to ensure
that everyone on Earth drank Coca-Cola as their preferred beverage. This is especially true in
southern areas of the United States, such as Atlanta, where Coke was born.

Some of the memorable Coca-Cola television commercials between 1960 through 1986
were written and produced by former Atlanta radio veteran Don Naylor (WGST 1936–1950,
WAGA 1951–1959) during his career as a producer for the McCann Erickson advertising
agency. Many of these early television commercials for Coca-Cola featured movie stars, sports
heroes and popular singers.
During the 1980s, Pepsi-Cola ran a series of television advertisements showing
people participating in taste tests demonstrating that, according to the commercials, "fifty percent
of the participants who said they preferred Coke actually chose the Pepsi." Statisticians were
JITENDRA SANGLE
Coca-Cola India Pvt. Ltd.
quick to point out the problematic nature of a 50/50 result: most likely, all the taste tests really
showed was that in blind tests, most people simply cannot tell the difference between Pepsi and
Coke. Coca-Cola ran ads to combat Pepsi's ads in an incident sometimes referred to as the cola
wars; one of Coke's ads compared the so-called Pepsi challenge to two chimpanzees deciding
which tennis ball was furrier. Thereafter, Coca-Cola regained its leadership in the market.
Selena was a spokesperson for Coca-Cola from 1989 till the time of her death. She filmed
three commercials for the company. In 1994, to commemorate her five years with the company,
Coca-Cola issued special Selena coke bottles.
The Coca-Cola Company purchased Columbia Pictures in 1982, and began inserting
Coke-product images in many of its films. After a few early successes during Coca-Cola's
ownership, Columbia began to under-perform, and the studio was sold to Sony in 1989.
Coca-Cola has gone through a number of different advertising slogans in its long
history, including "The pause that refreshes," "I'd like to buy the world a Coke," and "Coke is it"
(see Coca-Cola slogans).
In 2006, Coca-Cola introduced My Coke Rewards, a customer loyalty campaign
where consumers earn points by entering codes from specially-marked packages of Coca-Cola
products into a website. These points can be redeemed for various prizes or sweepstakes entries.
Keith Law, a producer and writer of commercials for Belfast City Beat,
was not convinced by Coca-Cola's reintroduction of the advertisement in 2007, saying that "I
don't think there's anything Christmassy about HGVs and the commercial is too generic."
In 2001, singer Melanie Thornton recorded the campaign's advertising jingle as a
single, Wonderful Dream (Holidays are Coming), which entered the pop-music charts in
Germany at no. 9. In 2005, Coca-Cola expanded the advertising campaign to radio, employing
several variations of the jingle.
Sports sponsorship

Games Torch Relay. Available in Canada.
Coca-Cola was the first commercial sponsor of the Olympic games, at the 1928 games in
Amsterdam, and has been an Olympics sponsor ever since. This corporate sponsorship included
the 1996 Summer Olympics hosted in Atlanta, which allowed Coca-Cola to spotlight its
hometown. Most recently, Coca-Cola has released localized commercials for the 2010 Olympics
in Vancouver; one Canadian commercial referred to Canada's hockey heritage and was modified
after Canada won the gold medal game on February 28, 2010 by changing the ending line of the
commercial to say "Now they know whose game they're playing"
Since 1978, Coca-Cola has sponsored each FIFA World Cup, and other competitions
organized by FIFA. In fact, one FIFA tournament trophy, the FIFA World Youth Championship
from Tunisia in 1977 to Malaysia in 1997, was called "FIFA — Coca Cola Cup".] In addition,
Coca-Cola sponsors the annual Coca-Cola 600 and Coke Zero 400 for the NASCAR Sprint Cup
Series at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina and Daytona International
Speedway in Daytona, Florida. Coca-Cola has a long history of sports marketing relationships,
which over the years have included Major League Baseball, the National Football League,
National Basketball Association and the National Hockey League, as well as with many teams
within those leagues. Coca-Cola is the official soft drink of many collegiate football teams
throughout the nation.
Coca-Cola was one of the official sponsors of the 1996 Cricket World Cup held on the
Indian subcontinent. Coca Cola is also one of the associate sponsor of Delhi Daredevils in Indian
Premier League.
In England, Coca-Cola is the main sponsor of The Football League, a name given to the
three professional divisions below the Premier League in football (soccer). It is also responsible
for the renaming of these divisions — until the advent of Coca-Cola sponsorship, they were
referred to as Divisions One, Two and Three. Since 2004, the divisions have been known as The
Championship (equiv. of Division 1), League One (equiv. of Div. 2) and League 2 (equiv. of
Division 3). This renaming has caused unrest amongst some fans, which see it as farcical that the
JITENDRA SANGLE
Coca-Cola India Pvt. Ltd.
third tier of English Football is now called "League One." In 2005, Coca-Cola launched a
competition for the 72 clubs of the football league — it was called "Win a Player". This allowed
fans to place 1 vote per day for their beloved club, with 1 entry being chosen at random earning
£250,000 for the club; this was repeated in 2006. The "Win a Player" competition was very
controversial, as at the end of the 2 competitions, Leeds United AFC had the most votes by more
than double, yet they did not win any money to spend on a new player for the club. In 2007, the
competition changed to "Buy a Player". This competition allowed fans to buy a bottle of Coca-
Cola Zero or Coca-Cola and submit the code on the wrapper on the Coca-Cola website
{www.coca-colafootball.co.uk}. This code could then earn anything from 50p to £100,000 for a
club of their choice. This competition was favored over the old "Win a Player" competition, as it
allowed all clubs to win some money.

U.S. containers, as of 2008, Sizes vary from 8 US fl oz (240 ml) to 2 L (68 US fl oz), shown in cans
and glass and plastic bottles. The famous Coca-Cola
logo was created by John Pemberton's bookkeeper, Frank Mason Robinson, in 1885. Robinson came up
with the name and chose the logo's distinctive cursive script. The typeface used, known as Spenserian
script, was developed in the mid 19th century and was the dominant form of formal handwriting in the
United States during that period.
Robinson also played a significant role in early Coca-Cola advertising. His promotional
suggestions to Pemberton included giving away thousands of free drink coupons and plastering the city
of Atlanta with publicity banners and streetcar signs

CONCLUSION
Coca-Cola the “Big Red” of the soft drink industry is one of the
biggest companies having the largest ‘war chest’ of Advertisement budget. Take it
sports, take it any prime time television show or any feature film.
But contrary to the myth, that sale of the particular brand is linked
with its advertisement expenditure; it is actually linked with the factor called
“SHELF VISIBLITY”.
This is exactly what Coca-Cola India Pvt. Ltd. is doing. It has
virtually captured the ‘shelf’ and ‘racks’ of every possible retailer & sales outlet.
Something that its parent company is already a “PRO” in it.
